The Central Market (Pasar Seni) is located few minutes walking distance from the Petaling Street Chinatown in Malaysia. It's a market centre for Malaysian Food, Culture, Crafts and Art. Malaysia is a multiracial country.
Inside the Central market, the stalls are grouped into few sections :
☻ Straits Chinese (chinese street)
☻ Lorong Melayu (malay street)
☻ Little India (indian street)
☻ Lorong Kelapa (coconut street selling products made from coconut)
☻ Lorong Kolonial (colonial street)
☻ Jonker Street (a street with Malacca baba nyonya inspired architecture)
☻ Blue Mansion (street selling antiques)
☻ Central Market Food Court (2nd floor sell food and beverages)
My parents like to go to Central Market (Pasar Seni) to buy Dodol. It's a Malay sweet sticky rice flour confection with 3 common flavors which is the durian, pandan and original Dodol coconut flavor.
Durian flavor Dodol is my favourite because I like to eat Durian.
Kasturi Walk is a place for art lover where artists gathered to sell their art work and crafts. It's a place for visitors to look for custom made crafts, batik, paintings and arts with Malaysian characteristic painted by the Malaysian artists.. Visitors could have their own self portrait painted by the artists here too.
Other than arts and crafts... there's also plenty of street-food stalls here. The brown pewter colored Wau (Malay kite) ornament decorated on the end of the roof covering the walkway at Kasturi Walk is a type of Malay kite called Wau Bulan (moon kite with the shape of a moon at the tail of the kite).
